    Description

    Tribal – Maori design on fringed rust colored leather medicine bag. New Zealand and the Maori culture are well known for their face tattoos know as Ta Moko. This type of traditional face tattoo told of the person’s linage and status within a tribe. This form of tattoo was highly personalized and played a big part in Maori spirituality. Kirituhi, which means “skin art” or “body art”, is a relatively new term being used to describe Maori –style tattoos. Kirituhi should not be confused with Ta Moko. Ta Moko is Taonga – a national and sacred treasure. Kirituhi is more general than personal. Moko was part of a person’s mana or spiritual inner strength. Medicine bag measures 1.5” high without the 1.75” fringe. They are 1.2” wide. This one is a rust colored leather draw bag. Lead-free pewter Ta Moko design is attached to the bag.
